    And he’s 100% right.

    They’re all lining up to kiss Trump’s stinky ass because they expect him to provide them with an unprecedented opportunity to thoroughly and completely fuck us all, and there’s nothing they want more in the world.

    If they’re willing to say and do anything to convince government to advantage large corporations at the expense of workers and consumers I don’t think they’re “pretending” to be republicans.

    I reckon we will see the biggest transfer of wealth ever during trumps second term. They are all lining up for the big one. I see them trying to undo Labor laws and deregulate across the board.

    I suspect they will push RTO even harder and try to drive down wages but specifically to screw over software developers currently on decent wages firing the lower paid ones, with CEOs claiming AI can do it while manufacturing the narrative that its the new normal 🙄.

      You’d be surprised to hear that most software devs i talk to think the benefits of ai are overrated. The problem is the bubble keeps growing and growing.

      … also leads to worse for all in the meantime.

      We’re getting it shoved down our throats too. We get asked to use ai to enhance things… that no one wanted fixed with ai.

        I added some more words to clarify, I meant the CEOs will claim it is replacing the developers. I’m a dev myself, we know it has its uses and its very obvious limitations.

        Yes they just slap Ai in the marketing and scale up the price.

      No shit right.

      People need to stop anthropomorphizing corporations. They are not moral and simply respond to incentives.

      They earned good will saying black lives matter and now they earn political will by saying trans lives don’t.

        Nothing they say is more than PR; no person, thing or idea matters except increasing profits.

    It’s almost like they have cutting edge artificial intelligence that can brief them on meta game theory and how to ensure successful outcomes for their personal interests, regardless of who’s ass they’re kissing.

    Isn’t “skirt antitrust laws, and ultimately 'rip off consumers and crush competitors” making them officially conservatives?
